Modern Hero celebrates women who are defying the odds and shattering glass ceilings, both in their careers and in the world. These women are astronauts, educators, politicians, media personalities, and everyone in between, proving that role models come in all shapes and sizes. The series takes an interactive approach by having YOU, and the women on the show, nominate Modern Heroes, who are then interviewed by millennial journalist, Julia Fisher Farbman. The goal of the series is to inspire a new wave of powerful young women to dream big and not let gender norms hold them back from success.
